THE TOON 2. THE ARSE 3 *** SINGAPORE FESTIVAL OF FUTBAALL!

 Posted ‘2:00pm πŸ›Ž️ bells’ Munday 28th July 2025

WONDERBAR

MURPHY’S LAW!

NUFCs forst game of wor Asia tour ended in a narrow 2-3 defeat against The Arse in The Singapore National Stadium!

Aa watched the forst half in Wonderbar in ‘The Gate’ and fully expected it to be rammed az anly 3 boozers had the game on live!

In total there were TEN people in the bar and anly 5 of them were watchin the game!

Aa got in late and az luck would have it Elanga scored from a Tonali pass, az I walked from the bar to find a seat! (aboot 100 available!)

The Arses 3 goals were aall misstayks! Forstly Bruno lost possession near wor box in the 32nd minute and before we knew it, it woz ones a piece with Merino scorin for them from a pass by Havertz, who had dispossessed Joe!

Then just a minute later an Arses cross alang the 18 yard line foond Alex Murphy, who attempted to boot the baall oot for a corner, but anly succeeded in puttin the baall into hiz own net to put The Arse 2-1 up! 

HT 2-1 to them!

For the 2nd half aa moved on to Shearer’s Bar underneath The Gallowgate End where aboot 20 were watchin the game!

JACOB MURPHY’ EQUALISER IN ‘SHEARER’S

We played a bit better in the 2nd period and this time the othaa Murphy (Jacob) slammed the baall into the roof of the net to level things 2-2!

Just when it looked like the game would end in a draw, Joelinton needlessly fouled Dowman in the box and after a brief check the Asian ref pointed to the spot for a penalty to them!

By this time The Pope who had made 2 great saves in the 2nd half had been replaced by Ruddy in The Toon goal and although he dived the reet way he woz unable to stop Odergaard’s powerful shot to put The Arses aheed once more! 3-2 to them!

A TOON FANS REACTION TO THE ARSES PENALTY!

That’s the way it ended for wor 2nd defeat of the pre season, after wor disastrous 4-0 defeat to Celtic in Glasgow last weekend!



Official Geordie Times Tellyhoppers attendances: 6 watchin in Wonderbar includin little old me and with me, 21 in Shearer’s!

THE TIMS 4. THE TOON 0 *** FRIENDLY FIXTURE

 Posted ‘high noon πŸ•› bells πŸ””’ Sunday 20th July 2025



“WHERE’S WOR STRIKER GONE!?”πŸ€”

The biggest worry for me , wasn’t the shambolic 4-0 defeat, but the fact that Alexander Isak wasn’t included in the 25 man squad that travelled to Glasgow!

I got that shock news from Toon fan ‘Mark Mini Mags’ on mee mobile ‘telling bone’ πŸ“±πŸ¦΄ an hour before kick off, az we were drinkin in Rutherglen, not too far from Celtic Park!

The less said aboot the match the better!—-watched by ower 10,000 Toon Travellers behind the right hand goal in both the lower and upper tiers of the South Stand!

THE TOON FANS, MANY DRESSED WITH UNION JACK FLAGS AND HATS AND SINGIN’ ANTI IRA SONGS TO GOAD THE CELTIC FANS! (NOTE THE EMPTY SEATS IN THE CELTIC CORNER!)

Willock’s calamitous tackle to give a penalty away for the 1st goal, ‘The Pope’ (of aall people) mistiming hiz run oot of goal to leave an open goal for a simple tap in to put us 2-0 doon bang on half time

SPOT THE EMPTY SEATS IN THE CELTIC END, AZ THE TOON SUBS IN ORANGE WARM UP IN FRONT OF THE TOON FANS!

Chaotic defending for both the 3rd and 4th goals in the 2nd period, az half of the away following were AWAY by the time the 4th goal went in!


Attendance: 45,739 (More than 10,000 Toon fans to watch this debacle!)

A bad day at ‘the office’ if ever there woz one and to compoond wor misery even forthaa, their woz nee trolly service in 1st class on the train from Edinburgh to The Toon, az the staff said it “wasn’t safe” with SO many Toon fans on the train! (Total bollix!)(Normally yoo get tea/coffee/booze/sarnies/crisps/ hot food/etc! —and there were loads of complaints to the lazy staff!)

And on the train back aa looked at Eddie Howe’s after match comments on mee ‘telling bone’ and he said that he “Was confident” that Isak would still be at NUFC when the transfor window closes! ‘Confident but NOT certain’ woz the message I got! (At the end of the day, it’s NOT hiz ‘call’, it’s up to wor Saudi owners!)

Their ambition to be ‘NUNBER ONE’ will NOT happen if we sell wor best players!—FULL STOP!⚫️
